Very unique and enchanting experience. It feels like an "Americanized JRPG" and I mean that as a full compliment. The art pulls you into the world, and the combat system is solid, and it's varying difficulties make it welcoming for new players and experts alike. The combat rarely seems like a 'grind' with level ups happening frequently and your characters showing almost constant growth. The level of detail, polish, and absolute love put into this game by its creators really shows.

Also, I think it's a steal at only $15 (the price at the time of this review). Any sale price below that makes this a 'must get'.

A few notes: with the exception of "The Golem's Plight", the DLC is all bull, don't bother. Golem's Plight adds an extra character into the game (about an hour and a half into the game) who is useful, but certainly not necessary as the experience would still feel "complete" without it. For the other DLC, you get 'Oculi' as rewards in combat, kinda like money in most JRPGs. It's just a waste to buy it. Also, uPlay sucks, blah blah blah, but you knew that.
